More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Just as there are primary colors from which all of the others come forth when they're combined, so there are primary vibratory qualities of energy and light within us.
Frederick Lenz
A good teacher will show you the ropes in the world of power. They will give you the wisdom that is necessary to be able to use power. You just don't give a kid a new Ferrari. You teach him how to drive it.
Frederick Lenz
The role of the teacher is to make sure that the practice is pure. By guiding the student, you make sure that they are really going into the planes of light and not fooling themselves.
Frederick Lenz
It was a time period in the 1960, when a generation of souls looked at the established society, looked at the pettiness, the greed, the hate, and rejected it and tried to create something new. Their creation neither succeeded nor failed. It was another experience.
Frederick Lenz
I too have experienced the extreme pain of living, but I have also experienced some of its remarkable ecstasy.
Frederick Lenz
Some people say: There is no God because, if there was a God, God would stop all the suffering. Nonsense! God is oblivious to suffering. God is beyond suffering. That's what makes God, God, by definition.
Frederick Lenz
Eventually you're supposed to get so confounded by this whole thing that you just give up completely, and that's when it starts to work. Not give up the practice, but give up trying to figure it out.
Frederick Lenz
As an enlightened teacher of Buddhism, I'd like to welcome you to the pathway to enlightenment. I'd like to encourage you to be more positive, to engage in the practice meditation, to learn how to do this wonderful thing - make your mind still in a crazy world.
Frederick Lenz
I think the very best thing you can do is observe what makes you stronger and what makes you weaker.
Frederick Lenz
The problem with love is attachment love makes you dependent. Unattached love - you love for the hell of it.
Frederick Lenz
What is enlightenment, anyway? I don't know if I can really put it into words, perhaps you can. I can't.
Frederick Lenz
An enlightened person doesn't know it all. Enlightenment simply means walking beyond this and all worlds into nirvana, which is beyond knowledge and ignorance.
Frederick Lenz
Fix your awareness gently on the center of your chest. Try to feel love.
Frederick Lenz
The relationship between the student and teacher is ultimately important. In higher spirituality we don't study a subject as much as a person.
Frederick Lenz
If you suffer in love, if you have problems in love, it's because you don't have enough humility.
Frederick Lenz
Selfless actions create a higher karma, which brings you into higher states of mind. When you are in higher states of mind you will see things that you never saw before.
Frederick Lenz
It is one thing to teach a dynamic Oriental philosophy and religious code it is quite another to put such a discipline to the test by successfully living it in the face of ridicule.
Frederick Lenz
Zazen's music is composed in other dimensions and it is played by some of my students. I go through the music they have played with my aura and wash out anything impure.
Frederick Lenz
If global extinction is to be avoided, woman must unite and come to terms with their destiny.
Frederick Lenz
The software is the strength of the electronic tribe because it's networking. It's creating oneness. It's creating tributaries that link together into a singular river.
